One of my favorite cakes is fresh strawberry cake. The Konditerei in Salem makes a fabulous cake - but they are on the pricey side. I wanted to come up with a recipe of my own. Surprisingly, it's fairly easy. It's "strawberry season" right now. This is the PERFECT time to make this cake!! Enjoy!!

1 prepared White Cake mix, in 2 8" or 9" round cake pans, according to package instructions

What could be more beautiful than that, whipped cream, strawberries, cake, my idea of goodness.
Looks great, are you going to make one for me?

Whipping makes everything look and taste fluffy. yummmmmy!
Thanks for putting this recipe up. Tradition for my August birthday was to have Strawberry Whipped Cream Cake and it seems most people don't know what that is - including bakeries. My friend who's having a little party for me wanted to make a favorite cake for me and I sent me a bunch of recipes that weren't even close. This is perfect, wonderfully tasty and well, what could make a better tasting cake than this!
Thanks for your comment, MoonRabbit. I'm glad you like the cake recipe. It's definitely yummy. I'm an August baby too - and this is one of my favorites as well. Happy Birthday to you!
This is my ultimate favorite cake! I used this super easy recipe and yum yum !!
